I remember CityEngine generating residential house footprints....now it doesn't?

[JasonPietka1]

Am I missing something?

Assign rule Pointmarker_To_FootprintShape

[JasonPietka1]

There is no shapes created from the "Get map data" function to apply any rules to.

In the File -> Get Map Data window, check the "Download polygons" box to get building footprints.

[JasonPietka1]

Of course I check those boxes.  But after it gets the data there are no residential footprints.  In later versions it did get all the residential house footprints.

What geographical area are you trying to download?  Can you post a screenshot of your settings in the Get Map Data window?

[JasonPietka1]

North west corner in Wayne County Michigan, USA.  I have all the settings in the get map data checked.

[CherylLau]

I was hoping to see what your settings were for Bounds, so that I could try to reproduce it.  I just tried to download some footprints in the NW corner of Wayne County, Michigan, and I was able to get some footprints.  Not all buildings seem to have footprints though.  You can see what data is available on OpenStreetMap.

Yes,  there are a lot of buildings with no footprints and no houses at all.  

Open street map map shows house footprints but they’re not grabbed.

[CherylLau]

Can you post a screenshot of your Get Map Data window so that I can see what bounds and coordinate system you are trying?  Could you also point out where a footprint is missing?
